I need to pick up a set of front 18X9 FR500's in the 05+ Mustang offset (30mm) for my 03 Mach 1, but unfortunately, they are not available in silver. I will pick up a set of black front's, but will either need to get them painted & color matched to my rear wheels, or if its not possible to match them, I will have to get all 4 wheels painted silver. I was also considering powdercoating all 4, but Im sure that will cost quite a bit more....

What do you guys think, will a good body shop be able to match the silver paint on my rear wheels, or should I paint all 4, or powdercoat them??? What will the typical cost be for a quality job.....


Thanks.....
